Raleigh, North Carolina September 20, 2014
Welcome to the DogGoneFast FlyBall XIII!
Thank you for your entries; we are expecting 56 teams and we will have 2 rings. Please check the other links on our web site for seed chart, racing schedule, and detailed directions/maps.
We have managed to provide each team with approximately 40 heats. We are doing the “One Schedule for 2 Rings” format. A big thank you to the NC State Pre-Vet club for providing box and line judges for our tournament! We have ribbons for 1 st, 2nd and 3rd placements, a raffle and great welcome gifts.
Racing Format
The Racing Format is described on the seed chart. Warm-ups will be 120 seconds on both days. Warm-up time may be reduced if necessary. The two rings will be separated by a barricade. Please use the assigned doors for entering and exiting your ring and do not ever cross behind the barricade while teams are racing.
Mike Durman and Geoff Brown will be our Maitre-Ds and will be providing ring assignments. C2 forms will be delivered to the ring for you.
Judges and Acting RD
Jim Spitznas, Jon Bescher, Kyle Mankes, Chris Carr and Dirk Elber will be our judges. Please treat them well!
Linda Damiano, from Pawmetto Pack, has graciously agreed to be the acting RD for the weekend. Please see her if you have any RD type questions.
